Code:

When trying to connect to efnet.xs4all.nl, I got the same thing:
Code:
Connecting...
Logging in...
-- *** Processing connection to efnet.xs4all.nl
-- *** Looking up your hostname...
-- *** Checking Ident
-- *** No Ident response
-- *** Found your hostname
Error : Closing Link: 127.0.0.1 (Bad user info)
Disconnected from efnet.xs4all.nl
But when connecting to irc.efnet.org I got the same error as you.
I'm not sure what the deal with the Ident is... when my friend get's on, he can help more with this problem since he's the 'irc master' in his words.
I could connect just fine to efnet.xs4all.nl with mIRC, so I don't truely know what's going on.
EDIT: Wait... userinfo? Hmm. That's something I may be able to fix. I'll look into that, too.
